Iyuno is a production company and recording studio that produces the English dub of the Pokémon anime through their office in Burbank, California. This company is a result of the 2021 merger between Iyuno Media Group and SDI Media, which went under the name Iyuno-SDI Group until the company rebranded to Iyuno on October 26, 2022.

History

Iyuno first worked with the Pokémon franchise under the SDI Media branch, initially dubbing the English dub of Pokémon Origins in 2013. The Iyuno Media Group branch began working on the main series in 2020 with the episode Enter Pikachu!, replacing DuArt Media Services. Having many locations around the world, they also provide some graphic edits from their branch in South Korea.

With the merger of SDI Media, the studio also produces the majority of Pokémon dubs around the world through their Polish branch. As of Pokémon Horizons: the Series, these languages include French, Italian, German, Castilian Spanish, Latin American Spanish, Brazilian Portuguese, Danish, Dutch, Norwegian, Swedish, Finnish, Polish, Turkish, Russian, Arabic, Hebrew, Czech, European Portuguese.

In 2023, Iyuno became the first dubbing studio to produce unionized English dubs of the Pokémon franchise, with Pokémon Horizons: The Series and Pokémon Concierge being dubbed with a SAG-AFTRA contract.

As Pokémon the Series was recorded from both Burbank and New York City, Iyuno works with the New York-based studio Goldcrest Post to allow for voice actors from both cities to send in their lines. Pokémon Horizons: the Series would later add dubbing studio Okratron 5000 as a satellite recording studio for talent from Dallas, Texas as well.
